    your workouts are no longer about "how many calories can I burn?" and more about "how can I challenge myself today?"

    When you eat a meal for your macros, and not for your tastebuds.

    ^^^ THIS!
    Also when you google the nutrient contents of different foods and if you go for more than a few days without eating some serious superfoods you start getting antsy!

    When eating a salad (without adding so many meats and cheeses and dressings there's more of them than the veggies) feels like a normal meal instead of a punishment one has to deal with.

    You avoid having a chocolate bar because you can eat more of the healthier option, and because your tastebuds have changed and it's too sweet now.

    Had a couple of these moments this week:

    When fruit loops & granola/nut bars are treats for you instead of chocolate or ice cream

    And the big one for me this morning...

    Went to grab one of my family members yoghurt from the fridge & then reading the label and seeing the mass amounts of sugar content. So I ate my plain greek yoghurt with nothing in it and actually enjoyed it (love my GY, but normally add berries or something to it!)

    You look down at your shopping trolley (cart) and realise that without trying it is 90% fruit, veg and lean protein and you're looking forward to eating it.
    You look forward to the salads and healthy foods as treat food.
